Academic Courses
Eligible staff members may use tuition support benefits to support their continued education in academic credit courses offered at the University of Calgary for themselves and their eligible dependents. The staff member must be eligible prior to the start date of the session, but the benefit is paid based on their status on the fee deadline date.
Applications for this benefit must be submitted by the tuition fee deadline for each session according to the academic schedule. The application form for the winter 2024 session will open in late December 2023 and be open until the fee deadline of January 26, 2024. You must apply prior to this date.
Approved tuition support benefit amount is placed against the tuition in the session in which the application is received. The maximum benefit is provided in the details below by staff group and refreshes each benefit year (July 1 - June 30).
As per the Fee Chart, the maximum benefit for an undergraduate half-course is $696.06 and the maximum benefit for a graduate level course is $923.79. The student is responsible to pay the difference between the cost of the course and the benefit amount.
